There are 4 weeks remaining to publish glad tidings in Baguio
Mission!
Well the big news this week? Elder Lloyd goes home in 7 days! I have been
with this Kiwi for 7 months now and he still hasnt gotten tired of me! (or
hasn't spoken up yet) but tis been a great 7 months and now we are going to go
out hard this week! This last week we were approved to just work work work in
our area and it was the best, we were only in the office once giving us so much
more time meeting new people and teaching the Gospel.

Our investigator brother JR has been coming to church and reading the Book
of Mormon so much recently. We visited him and found out that his family is
actually moving him back to his hometown. He is 42, and got a skin disease
making it harder for him to walk and work, so his family is going to help him
get the medicine he needs back down in Leyte! It was sad to hear that he was
moving, but he said that when he gets there, he is going to finish what he
started here in San Fernando and be baptized in the Church. When he asked his
family if there were "Mormons" in his home town, he found out that his cousin is
a member of the Church! How perfect!
I have really come to see the change in brother JR and his willingness to
open his heart the the Spirit. Same goes for Dianne, someone who we used to
visit way back when Elder Tavita was my companion here! She was at church
yesterday and we barely saw her because she was surrounded by the other single
adults in the ward. Sevilla ward is awesome.
I had the chance to work with the missionaries in Bauang this week too,
Elder Kim and Elder Lanogan! We met with someone who we have been teaching here
in Sevilla, but is from Naguilian and wants to go to church there! We also met
with some members of the Branch who knew other missionaries like Elder Smith and
Richardson (Shout out jimmy and isaac!)
Elder Rasband comes here on Saturday. I am very excited to hear from him
and his counsel. I am grateful for living prophets and apostles. I know that the
Gospel is so important to every single one of us and that the Lord is in
control.
Sorry for the short email and no pictures! Ill try and take pictures this
week just haven't remembered to!
Elder Pitt
